[Sept, 3, 1898 



Atlantic Tournament. 



Lynn, Mass., Aug. 20. —On the ISthand 19th insfc. the two days' tour- 

 nament of the Atlautic Ti-ap-Shooting Association took place at this 

 city regardless of tlie disagreeable weather, and while this acted as a 

 damper yet a good number of shooters were present. The weather 

 was anything but good and great clouds of fog hung to the ground, 

 making the shooting very difficult. 



The Boston Shooting Association, Lowell Gun Club, Brocton Gun 

 Club. Hinghatn Gun Club, ilarblehead Gun Club, Androscoggin Gun 

 Club and Lynn Game and Fish Protective Association were repre- 

 sented by a corps of able experts both days, and regardless the 

 unfavorable conditions high scores were made by visiting and local 

 sportsmen. Mr. Will K. Park, representing the Wilkesbarre Gun 

 Company, was present, showing an excellent display of fine gims and 

 making a record worthy of praise. 



The grounds of the Atlantic Shooting Association are located at 

 Lynnhurst, a distance of three miles from Lynn, and reached by the 

 electric cars, and a finer shooting park could not be asked for. The 

 scenery is very picturesque and the air exhilarating. 



Shooting commenced at 10 o'clock each day and continued till dark. 

 Dinner was served on the grounds by Messrs. Day and Fairchilds. 

 Following are the scores: W. F. Brown, Sec'y.

 numbers in the pine country along the AVisconsin Central, the Lake 

 Shore & Western, the Milwaukee & St. Paul or the Chicago & North- 

 western railways, at a distance of 200 to 300 miles north of Chicago,

 season Sept. 1. Michigan, North Peninsula season opens Sept. 25. Get 

 a copy of (raiae Laics in Brief, 25 cents, at this olBce or any gun store. 

 It will give all seasons in all States and Territories. For big game :

 tainous country. We cannot advise more definitely on the premises . 

 you offer.
